I was wondering if anyone can possibly help me out. I seem to have an electrical problem somewhere.

My nav lights, horn, and bilge all stopped working all of a sudden. I checked the fuses under the console and they are all ok. Are there any fuses elsewhere I should check? (cant seem to fine anymore) Does anyone possible have a wiring diagram that may help me out?

thanks for your help

Did you check the inline fuse that is aprox. 12" up from the battery?

I'm going to call this a ground issue. Yup; could be the fuse but all those different accessories typically have a separate fuse. Check the ground wire and you'll find your problem I bet. If the accessories tie into the dash, start looking there. Corrosion plays a great insulator.

Actually... look for corrosion on your power side too! That may be the issue as well. ;)

You were right. The fuse itself seems good, but it was corroded badly. I cleaned it off a bit with some battery corrosion cleaner and now have power to the accessories.

Thanks for all the help guys
